Evaluating the Effectiveness of Axiostat Hemostatic Dressing Material Versus Conventional Method of Hemostasis and Healing of Extraction Wounds in Patients on Oral Anti-Platelet Drugs - A Comparative Study
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The rationale of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of Axiostat hemostatic dental dressing in achieving hemostasis post-extraction and determining its effect on pain and healing of the extraction wound, compared to control, i.e. conventional method of extraction in patients on oral anti-platelet therapy.

Experimental: Axiostat Size: 1 x 1 cm Chitosan based haemostatic dressing |
Device: Axiostat
Axiostat® is a sterile, non-absorbable haemostatic dressing intended to control profuse bleeding within minutes of application by providing an active mechanical barrier to the wound site.
Axiostat® stops moderate to severe bleeding due to cuts, abrasions, lacerations, venous/arterial punctures and more. Mechanism of action is such that Axiostat® is an extremely positive dressing that becomes very sticky in the presence of negatively charged blood and thus seals the wound area.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Time to achieve haemostasis [1 Day]
Time to achieve hemostasis by observing the time at which blood oozing through or from periphery of the dressing stops.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Pain & Healing Scale [Upto 1 Day]
Patients comfort level as assessed by verbal inquiry after completion of procedure.
